The Plan

While the Bible others do read,
I astray my life would lead.
Perhaps He wanted only for me
To first see before I might believe.

So that when all was right,
I could awaken from my night
“For we live by faith, not by sight.”
Taught us Corinthians in His light.

And so said Timothy to my remiss:
“But you, man of God, flee from all this,
And pursue righteousness, godliness,
Faith, love, endurance and gentleness.”

My wandering is over, here I stand
The Lord’s footsteps in the sand
He’d carried me in His own hands
Knowing my return was always The Plan
